Chapter 4
Paper
With the GQ-3500 you can print on many different sizes and types
of paper. The printer feeds most types automatically from the paper
tray, while special ones -such as envelopes, labels, and overhead
projector transparencies - should be fed individually for greater
control. This chapter describes the paper delivery choices and how to
select and load paper.
Paper Delivery Choices
The GQ-3500 can deliver paper facedown on top of the printer or
face-up on the face-up output tray. The advantage of the printer
stacking the pages face-down is that they are stacked in the same
order in which they are printed.
The face-up delivery tray is necessary for printing envelopes and
overhead transparencies. It also gives you immediate viewing of your
output so you can see right away if a mistake in your file is causing
incorrect printing.
In Chapter 1 you used only the facedown delivery. Now you can
decide whether you want to install the face-up delivery tray. Even if
you do install it, you can still use either choice simply by changing the
paper path selector.
Installing the face-up tray
Installing the face-up tray is easy. Simply hold it in the position
shown on the next page in Figure 4-1. Then fit the edge of the tray over
the tab on the printer. That’s it.
When you are not using the tray, you can leave it on the printer but
raise it to the vertical position.
